In 2015, more than 413,000 Australians live with dementia. This number is currently estimated to increase to almost one million by 2050.

The figures associated with Alzheimer’s, while alarming, don’t reflect the true number of people impacted by the disease and can’t express the challenges a family goes through in living through their loved one’s diagnosis. They can however highlight the urgent need to find a cure or treatment.
